Batman and Robin Omnibus

Book excerpt: Peter Tomasi and Patrick Gleason's #1 New York Times bestseller BATMAN & ROBIN is now collected together, as the critically acclaimed series is repackaged here in a hardcover omnibus edition. Damian Wayne, the secret child of Bruce Wayne and his sworn enemy, Talia al Ghul, was trained from birth to kill and raised to rule the world. At the age of ten, Damian turned his back on his mother's megalomaniacal ambitions and joined his father's crusade against crime. Since then, the precocious new Robin has chafed under the unfamiliar restraints imposed by Batman's strict moral code--and struggled to accept the unique comforts of his strange new family. He also faces deadly challenges at every turn--from the league of assassins led by his immortal grandfather to the unstoppable insanity of the Joker, from the universe's most dangerous New God to his three suspicious predecessors, Damian must be prepared to battle them all. Good and evil. Triumph and tragedy. Death and rebirth. This is Batman and Robin as you've never seen them before.
